Culbertson is thrilled to be sharing the stage again with Barry Manilow.  Culbertson stated, “I had the
chance to open for Barry on a number of dates last year and had a blast!  He has the best fans and I
can’t wait to share my music with them again.”

Culbertson will performing tunes from his milestone tenth project, Bringing Back The Funk, which is a
historic and completely unprecedented revisiting to the land of the “sho’ nuff uncut” ‘70s-style funk of
ages.  The critically acclaimed album was produced by Brian along with executive producer Maurice
White (founder of Earth Wind & Fire).  Bringing Back The Funk is in stores now.

Manilow, who will be performing the exclusive rendition of his hit Las Vegas Hilton show, ranks as the top
Adult Contemporary chart artist of all time with more than 75 million records sold worldwide.  His career
includes 25 consecutive Top 40 hits such as Even Now, This One’s for You, Weekend in New England, I
Write the Songs, Tryin’ to Get the Feeling Again and Copacabana (At the Copa).  In 1978, five of Manilow’s
albums were on the charts simultaneously — a record rivaled only by Frank Sinatra and Johnny Mathis.

Billboard Magazine recently stated: "Among the few things one can count on in life: the taste of McDonald's
cheeseburgers, ‘I Love Lucy’ reruns are still funny—and Barry Manilow never wearing out his welcome at
the top of the charts."  The pop icon has written hundreds of songs and performed around the globe thrilling
millions of fans, winning a Grammy, two Emmys, several Tony Awards and an Oscar nomination along the way.
